Concerns: Defense, Rebounding, and experience

 

To Be Successful: Team Chemistry, Limit Turnovers, Limit Opponents to one shot per possession, solid defense, and consistent foul shooting – there are many players battling for varsity minutes.  We are looking for players to step up and prove they belong on the varsity level. 

 

Our goal is to win the Colonial Division of the Suburban One.
